In the Left’s crosshairs: challenge the War on Women meme, get flagged as spam on Twitter

http://twitter.com/#!/TeriChristoph/status/196953299658866688

Two of the progressive Twitter users advocating digital vigilantism in response to the oh-so-grave injustice of unmuzzled conservatives are @jmcaninch68 and @subculturestuff, active promoters of the Left’s pet War on Women meme. They are targeting conservatives who dared to participate in the United Against the War on Women hashtag (#UAWOW).

As I read the rules, they can be suspended if enough block & report them: RT @heyitsdaveralph: They were in full force yesterday for sure.

They want to end Rush Limbaugh’s supposed War on Women by disappearing his supporters? No shock that this sort of silencing tactic is coming from Stop Rush (read: Media Matters) flunkies. Conservatives, of course, took notice:

BTW, @shitsexistssay2 & @subculturestuff are directly responsible for the "Toldjah's Army" hitlist circulating #uawow #waronwomen #sgp #tcot

.@subculturestuff & @shitsexistssay2 only believe in dialogue for likeminded ppl. Otherwise, they want you suspended from Twitter. #uawow

So the other day liberals were tweeting about a #UAWOW and then @DLoesch was physically threatened so liberals get her hubby suspended.

If you are a conservative who's used the #UAWOW tag, liberals have targeted you for #twittergulag.

Other progressive Twitter users are reportedly getting in on the muzzling action:

Hey, @TwitchyTeam & @Twitter, you can add @MiaRaven to list of free speech silencers. She reported me as spam for using the #UAWOW hashtag.

— Teri Christoph (@TeriChristoph) April 30, 2012

@KatMcKinley I dared to tweet her about #UAWOW and was blocked/reported as spam. You can tell when you go to their page, you get a message.

Some liberals called for blocking or referred to conservative tweets as spam, but didn’t explicitly direct the War on Women crowd to use the flag-spam method of purging conservatives.

.@michellemalkin's http://t.co/DObqcMYl calls on their twitchy readers to spam the #UAWOW hashtag with wingnut hate http://t.co/oxPcIF9q

Attention, #UAWOW!!! Block @lheal NOW! This vile tweeter is spreading misogynistic attacks on this hashtag!

— Jovan (@CSRA_prsn) April 28, 2012

RT @SluttySlutSlut: @ShitSexistsSay2 @buckwilde @danielchristen7 @feminazislut thnx! I already blocked her fat ass. too annoying! #UAWOW

— Stacey-SisterToldjah (@sistertoldjah) April 30, 2012

#UAWOW #WhyWeRally Trolls will not be answered and will be blocked. I'm too busy fighting injustice to worry about your bullshit.

While it is difficult to verify with certainty that specific blocked accounts are also being reported for spam, it’s clear that this is part of the Left’s larger strategy to take down online conservatives:

#freechrisloeschAGAIN trending again. @ChrisLoesch account still suspended. Progs who threaten/slime conservative women still free to tweet.
